Author Location	JS Ranch
Location Narrative	The plot is located on the JS Ranch on the slope of a small hill just NE of the Ranch headquarters. It is a stand of blue oaks with an understory composed mostly of non-native grasses and forbs. There are numerous basalt boulders scattered throughout the plot. There are heavy clay soils immediately adjacent to the plot to the north. At the time of the survey, the oaks were about 3/4 leafed-out. Early phenology for understory.; The site is actively grazed by cattle. There is what appears to be a mine shaft about 200 m to the SW.
